Gents,
I cant access the new site from home, I've cleared the cache, deleted cookies, tried with different browser and even deleted and reinstalled firefox. Any ideas?
-
Have you tried turning it on and off again?
-
Be quiet you silly man.
-
I've had the same issue also only way i can access the site is through a proxy. Really strange though can connect though other people's connection using the same laptop with no issues. My providers VM and can only think it's to do with that some how.
-
I have had the same problem for a couple of weeks. I assume my IP Address has been banned, probably by some automatic process.
Peter Withe, you could additionally try and flush your dns cache. From the command line:
ipconfig /flushdns
-
HAs anyone else's Forum Font changed?

Ah, I'm with them as well although I have disconnect the router and tried again with no success.

Yes, smaller font and typeface, I take it you can adjust in profile but I've not tried yet.

Yup I've tried this flush but still the same message 'taking too long to respond', I am also with Virgin and can only access the site via a proxy, is it something Virgin will be able to help with? any other suggestions?

I am with Virgin Media as well, so the evidence is mounting. It would be worth contacting them.

On PMs, where is the Outbox? Can only find sent and received messages.
-
There isn't one.
-
I seem not to have a 'quote' option when I am tring to cut and past an article or post. Cant seem to find any options on the profile thingy.
Anyone help?
-
Click the 'speech bubble' to the RHS.
-
I dont seem to have one.
-
Do you see Quote above your post?
What do you see when you click Reply?
-
Are you still using a proxy Peter Withe? If, as I suspect, this is the case, then you will not see the posting tools in the reply window due to various features such as scripting being switched off.
So you have to do manually with it bbcode.
You can do this as follows, ignoring the back slashes.
Type \[quote\] then the stuff you want quoted and then \[/quote]
There is a page for BBCode help under Help | Posting Basics

Yes I am, ta, I will try that.
cheers,
